Targeting human papillomavirus type 16 E7 to the endosomal/lysosomal compartment enhances the antitumor immunity of DNA vaccines against murine human papillomavirus type 16 E7-expressing tumors.

DNA vaccination is an attractive approach for tumor immunotherapy because of its stability and simplicity of delivery. Advances demonstrate that helper T cell responses play a critical role in initiating immune responses. The aim of the current study is to test whether targeting HPV-16 E7 to the endosomal/lysosomal compartment can enhance the potency of DNA vaccines. We linked the lysosome-associated membrane protein 1 (LAMP-1) to HPV-E7 to construct a chimeric DNA, Sig/E7/LAMP-1 DNA. For in vivo tumor prevention experiments, mice were vaccinated with E7 DNA or Sig/E7/LAMP-1 DNA via gene gun, followed by tumor challenge. For in vivo tumor regression experiments, mice were first challenged with tumor cells and then vaccinated with E7-DNA or Sig/E7/LAMP-1 DNA. Intracellular cytokine staining with flow cytometry analysis, cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) assays, enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay (ELISA), and enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISPOT) assays were used for in vitro E7-specific immunological studies. In both tumor prevention and tumor regression assays, Sig/E7/LAMP-1 DNA generated greater antitumor immunity than did wild-type E7 DNA. In addition, mice vaccinated with Sig/E7/LAMP-1 DNA had greater numbers of E7-specific CD4+ helper T cells, higher E7-specific CTL activity, and greater numbers of CD8+ T cell precursors than did mice vaccinated with Sig/E7 or wild-type E7 DNA. Sig/E7 generated a stronger E7-specific antibody response than did Sig/E7/LAMP-1 or wild-type E7 DNA. Our results indicate that linkage of the antigen gene to an endosomal/lysosomal targeting signal may greatly enhance the potency of DNA vaccines.

Paracrine immunotherapy with interleukin-2 and local chemotherapy is synergistic in the treatment of experimental brain tumors.

Potent immune responses against malignant brain tumors can be elicited by paracrine intracranial (i.c.) immunotherapy with interleukin (IL)-2. Additionally, i.c. delivery of carmustine via biodegradable polymers has been shown to significantly prolong survival in both animal models and clinical trials. In this study, we show that the combination of paracrine immunotherapy, with nonreplicating genetically engineered tumor cells that produce IL-2, and local delivery of chemotherapy by biodegradable polymers prolongs survival in a synergistic manner in mice challenged intracranially with a lethal murine brain tumor. Animals receiving IL-2-transduced cells and polymers containing 10% 1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea had significantly improved survival compared with animals receiving IL-2-transduced cells or 10% 1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea alone. Median survival for the control group was 19 days. Survival in animals receiving IL-2-transduced cells and 1% carboplatin-containing polymers was also significantly improved compared with either therapy alone. Histopathological examination on day 14 of animals receiving combination treatment showed rare degenerating tumor cells. In addition to tissue necrosis surrounding the polymer, a marked inflammatory reaction was observed. In long-term survivors (all animals receiving combination treatment), no tumor was observed and the inflammatory reaction was completely resolved. The brains of animals receiving combination therapy showed both tissue necrosis due to local chemotherapy and strong inflammation due to paracrine immunotherapy. The demonstration of synergy between paracrine IL-2 and local i.c. delivery of antineoplastic drugs is novel and may provide a combined treatment strategy for use against both primary and metastatic i.c. tumors.

Treatment of liver metastases from colon carcinoma with autologous tumor vaccine expressing granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: In preclinical studies, tumor cells genetically altered to secrete granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) can generate systemic antitumor immunity. Clinically relevant immunotherapeutic approaches for the treatment of colorectal cancer should address efficacy within the liver, a common site of metastatic disease. We investigated the effect of irradiated colon cancer cells engineered to produce GM-CSF on protecting from and treating established liver metastases. METHODS: Using a model of liver metastasis by intrahepatic injection of CT-26 murine colon carcinoma cells in syngeneic BALB/c mice, GM-CSF-producing irradiated cells were given as an intradermal vaccine either 14 days prior to hepatic challenge or in animals with early established tumor (days 5 and 10). The presence of tumor, tumor volume, and survival were endpoint determinants. RESULTS: Animals receiving GM-CSF-producing vaccination demonstrated significant protection from subsequent hepatic challenge of viable tumor cells, even at the highest challenge doses. In animals with early established tumors, a significant response was seen with prolongation in survival. CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that GM-CSF autologous tumor vaccination was effective for the treatment of hepatic colorectal metastases in this murine model. These findings provide support for immunotherapeutic approaches for metastatic liver cancer.

Attrition of T cell memory: selective loss of LCMV epitope-specific memory CD8 T cells following infections with heterologous viruses.

Using a variety of techniques, including limiting dilution assays (LDA), intracellular IFNgamma assays, and Db-IgG1 MHC dimer staining to measure viral peptide-specific T cell number and function, we show here that heterologous virus infections quantitatively delete and qualitatively alter the memory pool of T cells specific to a previously encountered virus. We also show that a prior history of a virus infection can alter the hierarchy of the immunodominant peptide response to a second virus and that virus infections selectively reactivate memory T cells with distinct specificities to earlier viruses. These results are consistent with a model for the immune system that accommodates memory T cell populations for multiple pathogens over the course of a lifetime.

Gene gun-mediated DNA vaccination induces antitumor immunity against human papillomavirus type 16 E7-expressing murine tumor metastases in the liver and lungs.

DNA vaccination has emerged as an attractive approach for tumor immunotherapy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potency of DNA vaccines in preventing and treating the liver and lung metastases of a human papillomavirus-16 (HPV-16) E7-expressing murine tumor (TC-1). We used the gene gun method to vaccinate C57BL/6 mice intradermally with DNA vaccines containing the HPV-16 E7 gene, the E7 gene linked to the sorting signals of the lysosome-associated membrane protein-1 (Sig/E7/ LAMP-1), or the 'empty' plasmid vector. The in vivo antitumor immunity was analyzed in both tumor prevention and tumor regression experiments. In addition, cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) assays, enzyme-linked immunospot assay and enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay were used to assess the E7-specific T cell-mediated and humoral immunity. Mice vaccinated with Sig/E7/LAMP-1 DNA generated the strongest E7-specific CTL activities, the highest numbers of E7-specific CD8+ cell precursors and the highest titers of E7-specific antibodies. While both E7 DNA and Sig/E7/LAMP-1 DNA generated potent antitumor immunity in the liver and lung metastases models, the Sig/E7/LAMP-1 DNA was more potent under stringent conditions. DNA vaccination with E7-expressing plasmids was effective in controlling liver and lung metastases of an E7-expressing murine tumor. Our data suggest that antigen-specific DNA vaccination can potentially be applied to control liver and lung metastases of tumors with defined tumor-specific antigens.

Limitations of adenovirus-mediated interleukin-2 gene therapy for oral cancer.

OBJECTIVE/HYPOTHESIS: Adenoviral interleukin-2 (AdV-IL-2) gene therapy has previously not proven effective in treating established murine oral cancer. We hypothesize that the intratumoral level of IL-2 expression is a major limiting factor in treatment outcome. METHODS: A microscopic disease and established oral cancer murine model was used to test this hypothesis. IL-2 gene transfer was performed with a recombinant adenovirus vector. RESULTS: Tumor cells were transduced in vitro with AdV-IL-2 and subsequently implanted into the floor of the mouth in C3H/HeJ mice. IL-2 expression in vitro ranged from 990 to 1,050 pg/10(6) tumor cells. This microscopic disease treatment resulted in either complete tumor regression or a dramatic decrease in tumor progression. Cytolytic T-cell (CTL) assays demonstrated a predominance of CD8-specific, T-cell-mediated tumor killing. Reducing IL-2 expression by half with a mixture of 1:1 transduced to nontransduced tumor cells eliminated the antitumor effect and decreased the CTL response. These findings support the presence of a critical "threshold" of IL-2 expression. Adenovirus repurification and amplification allowed isolation of a twofold-higher-titer AdV-IL-2 vector. Treatment of established tumors with the higher-titer AdV-IL-2 at a new maximal dose of 1.4 x 10(9) plaque-forming units (pfu) increased in vivo IL-2 expression to 1,127 pg/10(6) cells and generated a significant antitumor response. Complete regression of established tumors, however, could not be achieved, and we noted a decrease in IL-2 expression well below the threshold at 1 week after treatment. Upon repeat maximal AdV-IL-2 injection in vivo, a greater antitumor effect and increased CTL response was seen, but also, 28% of the animals died of IL-2 toxicity. CONCLUSION: Although limited by expression and toxicity as a single-treatment strategy for established tumors, AdV-IL-2 gene therapy should be considered a potential component of combination therapy strategies.

Antigen-specific immunotherapy for murine lung metastatic tumors expressing human papillomavirus type 16 E7 oncoprotein.

An important goal of cancer immunotherapy is to prevent and treat tumor metastasis. We have previously reported a recombinant vaccinia-based vaccine (Sig/E7/LAMP-1) that demonstrated significant anti-tumor effect in a subcutaneous tumor challenge model. In this study, we investigated the potency of the Sig/E7/ LAMP-1 vaccine in preventing and treating metastatic tumors. A tumor metastasis model was generated by injecting human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) E6/E7 expressing tumor cells, designated TC-1, into the tail vein of syngeneic C57BL/6 mice. All the naive mice injected with 1 x 10(6) TC-1 cells developed tumors confined exclusively to the lungs within 1 month. For in vivo tumor prevention experiments, mice were vaccinated with Sig/E7/ LAMP-1 followed by tumor challenge. While tumor growth was observed in all of the mice (10/10) in the control groups, 8 of 10 vaccinated mice (80%) remained tumor-free 2 months post-tumor challenge. For in vivo treatment experiments, mice were first inoculated with TC-1 cells and then vaccinated with Sig/E7/ LAMP-1. Treatment with Sig/E7/LAMP-1 was effective in eliminating preexisting tumor cells in 4 of 5 vaccinated mice. Most importantly, treatment with Sig/E7/LAMP-1 resulted in regression of fully established lung tumors in 10% (5/10) of vaccinated mice. Our data suggest that the Sig/E7/LAMP-1 vaccine is effective in controlling the hematogenous spread of TC-1 tumor cells. In addition, the TC-1 lung metastasis model can be used to test the efficacy of various E6/E7-specific vaccines and immunotherapeutic strategies.

Direct visualization of antigen-specific T cells: HTLV-1 Tax11-19- specific CD8(+) T cells are activated in peripheral blood and accumulate in cerebrospinal fluid from HAM/TSP patients.

Human T lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) -associated myelopathy/tropic spastic paraparesis is a demyelinating inflammatory neurologic disease associated with HTLV-1 infection. HTLV-1 Tax11-19-specific cytotoxic T cells have been isolated from HLA-A2-positive patients. We have used a peptide-loaded soluble HLA-A2-Ig complex to directly visualize HTLV-1 Tax11-19-specific T cells from peripheral blood and cerebrospinal fluid without in vitro stimulation. Five of six HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropic spastic paraparesis patients carried a significant number (up to 13.87%) of CD8(+) lymphocytes specific for the HTLV-1 Tax11-19 peptide in their peripheral blood, which were not found in healthy controls. Simultaneous comparison of peripheral blood and cerebrospinal fluid from one patient revealed 2.5-fold more Tax11-19-specific T cells in the cerebrospinal fluid (23.7% vs. 9.4% in peripheral blood lymphocyte). Tax11-19-specific T cells were seen consistently over a 9-yr time course in one patient as far as 19 yrs after the onset of clinical symptoms. Further analysis of HTLV-1 Tax11-19-specific CD8(+) T lymphocytes in HAM/TSP patients showed different expression patterns of activation markers, intracellular TNF-alpha and gamma-interferon depending on the severity of the disease. Thus, visualization of antigen-specific T cells demonstrates that HTLV-1 Tax11-19-specific CD8(+) T cells are activated, persist during the chronic phase of the disease, and accumulate in cerebrospinal fluid, showing their pivotal role in the pathogenesis of this neurologic disease.

CD4+ T cell tolerance to parenchymal self-antigens requires presentation by bone marrow-derived antigen-presenting cells.

T cell tolerance to parenchymal self-antigens is thought to be induced by encounter of the T cell with its cognate peptide-major histocompatibility complex (MHC) ligand expressed on the parenchymal cell, which lacks appropriate costimulatory function. We have used a model system in which naive T cell receptor (TCR) transgenic hemagglutinin (HA)-specific CD4+ T cells are adoptively transferred into mice expressing HA as a self-antigen on parenchymal cells. After transfer, HA-specific T cells develop a phenotype indicative of TCR engagement and are rendered functionally tolerant. However, T cell tolerance is not induced by peptide-MHC complexes expressed on parenchymal cells. Rather, tolerance induction requires that HA is presented by bone marrow (BM)-derived cells. These results indicate that tolerance induction to parenchymal self-antigens requires transfer to a BM-derived antigen-presenting cell that presents it to T cells in a tolerogenic fashion.

Enhanced tumor protection by granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor expression at the site of an allogeneic vaccine.

Murine tumor models have demonstrated that whole tumor cell vaccines engineered to secrete certain cytokines in a paracrine fashion elicit systemic immune responses capable of eliminating small amounts of established tumor. In particular, autologous tumors that express the cytokine GM-CSF induce potent systemic immune responses against poorly immunogenic murine tumors. However, phase I clinical trials have demonstrated the technical difficulty of routinely expanding primary autologous human tumor cells to the numbers required for vaccination, making the generalization of autologous vaccines impractical. Dissection of the mechanism by which antitumor immunity is generated has demonstrated that GM-CSF recruits professional antigen-presenting cells that act as intermediates in presenting tumor antigen to and activating effector T cells. Furthermore, the identification of commonly recognized murine and human tumor antigens indicates that many are shared rather than unique. These findings would suggest that allogeneic as well as autologous tumor cells can be used as the vaccinating cells for activating antitumor immunity. A major concern in the application of allogeneic vaccines relates to the potential interference of allogeneic MHC expression at the vaccine site with priming of tumor-specific T cell responses. Here we describe a series of experiments that directly examines the effects of allogeneic MHC molecules on the immune-priming capabilities of a whole cell tumor vaccine engineered to secrete GM-CSF. The results demonstrate that the expression of an allogeneic MHC molecule by a vaccine cell can actually enhance the induction of systemic antitumor immunity. In addition, allogeneic MHC expression has no inhibitory effect on the ability of GM-CSF-transduced vaccines to induce systemic antitumor immunity. These findings support the design of clinical trials for testing this more feasible and generalizable allogeneic whole tumor cell vaccine approach.

Activation of low avidity CTL specific for a self epitope results in tumor rejection but not autoimmunity.

To determine how self-tolerance can alter the ability of the immune system to respond against tumor-associated Ags that are also expressed by normal tissue, we designed experiments in which the same protein was expressed both as a tumor Ag and as a transgene product. Unlike conventional BALB/c mice that rejected renal carcinoma cells transfected with the influenza virus hemagglutinin (Renca-HA), transgenic mice that are tolerant of HA due to its expression as a self-Ag on pancreatic islet beta cells, (Ins-HA mice) supported progressive growth of these tumor cells. However, when Ins-HA mice were immunized with a recombinant strain of vaccinia virus expressing the dominant H-2Kd peptide epitope of HA before receiving Renca-HA cells, they too were able to reject the tumor cells. Rejection of Renca-HA cells by immunized Ins-HA mice was found to be associated with the generation of CTL having much lower avidity for target cells presenting the KdHA epitope than CTL from immunized conventional BALB/c mice. Significantly, we show that self-tolerance to the HA Ag is quantitative rather then absolute, and that vaccination of Ins-HA mice can activate low avidity KdHA-specific CD8+ T cells that are able to reject tumor cells expressing high levels of HA, yet these mice remain tolerant of pancreatic islet beta cells expressing HA.

The role of CD4+ T cell responses in antitumor immunity.

While most of the focus in cancer immunology is on CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocyte responses, recent evidence indicates that CD4+ T cells are an equally critical component of the antitumor immune response. Successful immunity to cancer will therefore require activation of tumor-specific CD4+ T cells. Tumor antigens recognized by CD4+ T cells that are restricted by MHC class II are beginning to be defined in both murine and human tumors. These will provide the basis for new generations of antigen-specific tumor vaccines.

Immunomodulatory properties of antineoplastic drugs administered in conjunction with GM-CSF-secreting cancer cell vaccines.

Cancer cells genetically modified to secrete immunoregulatory cytokines offer great promise for human cancer treatment as tumor vaccines. However, in preclinical animal studies, large established cancer burdens have appeared difficult to eradicate with such vaccines. For example, lethally-irradiated GM-CSF-secreting CT26 colon carcinoma cell vaccine therapy tends to cure only animals bearing 1 x 10(5) wild-type CT26 cells or less. For many human cancers, antineoplastic chemotherapy can often significantly reduce systemic cancer burdens. Unfortunately, for most advanced metastatic solid organ cancers, such as cancers of the breast, colon, and prostate, antineoplastic drug treatments generally fail to effect cancer cures. Treatment regimens combining genetically-modified cancer cell vaccine therapy and antineoplastic chemotherapy have the potential to increase advanced cancer cure rates if antineoplastic drugs and drug combinations that do not inhibit vaccine-induced immune responses can be identified. To assess the potential immunomodulatory properties of commonly-used antineoplastic drugs that might be used in combination with cancer vaccine treatments, we studied the effects of the drugs on antitumor immune responses manifest by animals receiving lethally-irradiated GM-CSF-secreting CT26 cell vaccines. Immunomodulatory properties of the antineoplastic drugs were evaluated i) by monitoring drug effects on the generation of tumor-specific CD8+ cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs) in response to GM-CSF-secreting CT26 vaccine administration, ii) by determining drug effects on the resistance of vaccinated animals to subsequent challenge with lethal inoculac of CT26 cells, and iii) by evaluating combination drug and vaccine treatment efficacy against established CT26 tumors. Using this approach, doxorubicin was found to possess apparent immunostimulatory activities, depending on the dose and schedule of administration, while cyclophosphamide appeared immunosuppressive. The different immunomodulatory properties of doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide may be clinically relevant: combination doxorubicin and vaccine treatment of established CT26 cancers increased cure rates over that achieved with either agent alone, while combination cyclophosphamide and vaccine treatment of animals carrying CT26 tumors was no better in curing the animals than drug treatment alone.

Bioactivity of autologous irradiated renal cell carcinoma vaccines generated by ex vivo granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor gene transfer.

Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) gene-transduced, irradiated tumor vaccines induce potent, T-cell-mediated antitumor immune responses in preclinical models. We report the initial results of a Phase I trial evaluating this strategy for safety and the induction of immune responses in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Patients were treated in a randomized, double-blind dose-escalation study with equivalent doses of autologous, irradiated RCC vaccine cells with or without ex vivo human GM-CSF gene transfer. The replication-defective retroviral vector MFG was used for GM-CSF gene transfer. No dose-limiting toxicities were encountered in 16 fully evaluable patients. GM-CSF gene-transduced vaccines were equivalent in toxicity to nontransduced vaccines up to the feasible limits of autologous tumor vaccine yield. No evidence of autoimmune disease was observed. Biopsies of intradermal sites of injection with GM-CSF gene-transduced vaccines contained distinctive macrophage, dendritic cell, eosinophil, neutrophil, and T-cell infiltrates similar to those observed in preclinical models of efficacy. Histological analysis of delayed-type hypersensitivity responses in patients vaccinated with GM-CSF-transduced vaccines demonstrated an intense eosinophil infiltrate that was not observed in patients who received nontransduced vaccines. An objective partial response was observed in a patient treated with GM-CSF gene-transduced vaccine who displayed the largest delayed-type hypersensitivity conversion. No replication-competent retrovirus was detected in vaccinated patients. This Phase I study demonstrated the feasibility, safety, and bioactivity of an autologous GM-CSF gene-transduced tumor vaccine for RCC patients.

Considerations for the clinical development of cytokine gene-transduced tumor cell vaccines.

In preclinical models, tumor cells genetically altered to secrete cytokines or express costimulatory molecules can generate systemic antitumor immunity. In some studies, these tumor vaccines have been shown to eradicate micrometastases. These results have led to the initiation of numerous phase I clinical trials employing either genetically modified or allogenic tumor vaccines. This article addresses a number of issues related to the clinical development of cytokine gene-transduced tumor cell vaccines including: (1) the production of cytokine-secreting tumor vaccines; and (2) the preclinical feasibility and toxicity studies required for testing these vaccines in patients with cancer.

Inhibition of experimental vasospasm with anti-intercellular adhesion molecule-1 monoclonal antibody in rats.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Inflammation may play a role in delayed chronic vasospasm after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. We investigated the role of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and macrophage/granulocyte infiltration in the rat femoral artery model of vasospasm using systemic administration of a murine anti-ICAM-1 monoclonal antibody (MAb). METHODS: The femoral arteries (n = 72) in Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 36) were enclosed in latex pouches bilaterally. Autologous blood was injected into the pouch on one side, and saline was injected on the contralateral side. Chronic vessel narrowing was evaluated with the use of 29 rats, which were randomized into one of three groups for intraperitoneal injections: (1) anti-ICAM-1 MAb (2 mg/kg per dose, n = 10), (2) isotype-matched MAb (2 mg/kg per dose, n = 9), or (3) saline (n = 10), given at 3 hours and 3, 6, and 9 days after blood exposure. These rats were killed 12 days after blood exposure, and femoral artery lumen cross-sectional areas were determined by computerized image analysis. Saturation of ICAM-1 binding sites with this dosing schedule was evaluated by fluorescence-activated cell sorter (FACS) analysis of splenocytes. Immunohistochemical studies with objective cell counts were performed to evaluate macrophage/granulocyte infiltration at 24 hours in 7 rats, comparing anti-ICAM-1 MAb treatment (n = 4) with isotype-matched control MAb (n = 3). RESULTS: Animals treated with anti-ICAM-1 MAb showed a significant inhibition of arterial narrowing at 12 days (P = .0081), with lumen patency of 96.5 +/- 5.3% (mean +/- SEM), compared with 77.3 +/- 5.6% for isotype-matched MAb and 72.2 +/- 5.3% for saline-treated controls. FACS analysis of splenocytes from animals treated with anti-ICAM-1 MAb confirmed saturation of ICAM-1 binding sites. Vessels treated with anti-ICAM-1 MAb showed a significant decrease in inflammatory cell infiltrates, with objective macrophage/granulocyte counts of 31.3 +/- 26.6 (mean +/- SEM) per high-powered field, compared with 171.4 +/- 30.7 for isotype-matched control MAb (P = .0027). CONCLUSIONS: Anti-ICAM-1 MAb administered systemically starting 3 hours after blood exposure results in significant inhibition of chronic vasospasm in the rat femoral artery model and is correlated with a reduction in the number of infiltrating macrophages and granulocytes in the periadventitial region of blood-exposed arteries. We conclude that inflammatory changes associated with ICAM-1-mediated macrophage and granulocyte migration play an important role in the development of posthemorrhagic chronic vasospasm in this model.
